Isn't too poorly suited to the bye rounds (for this stage of the year) and yes I am aware I have loaded up on round 13 mids.
Thanks

Mr.Craig

Looks pretty good. Not much to say really, you'll probably find better options than Lonergan and Kennedy as time goes by. I would suggest Cotchin rather than Jobe, he's still on the way up and helps out with the bye load.

Lonergan is 183cm and 87kg and he averaged 16 disposals and 5 tackles/game in the U18's. He got a perfect score in the draft combine for kicking, plus he is at GC, so I'm happy keeping him there at the moment but obviously its still december and we have a long way to go, especially when picking rookies. Kennedy is really just a placeholder. Yeah wasn't sold on Jobe, thanks for the comment.

You may have a cash problem if the MN is increased.
DEF:
Nice! Liking the Stanley and Terlich selection.
MID:
Personally, I think three premiums (Swan, Beams, Pendles) from the same team on the same line could cost you a match-up or two. Marc Murphy could be an option if you want to load up on Rnd 13 mids. Otherwise Cotchin or even the ever-reliable Boyd. Hopefully your rookies get a gig in Rnd 1 - they could be great scorers for you. I think Hrovat is the least likely to get consistent game time (Dean Towers or Matt Jones could be handy replacements).
RUC:
Good combo.
FWD:
Strong line. Perhaps this is where you could find your extra cash by downgrading Cox to a $450k player and Knights to maybe Varcoe, Staker or Morton?

Good luck!

I actually traded Watson to boyd but that premo mid spot is still very much up for grabs.
Swan Beamer pendles doesn't worry me one bit but I see how it would be worrisome for some.
Yeah cox is also a placeholder premo at the moment.
And I have a crush on knights so he isn't going anywhere :)
